2.9 Easy wiring
Industrial control cabinet construction streamlines production cycles. Prefabricated cable trees enable faster and
easier assembly directly on the machine or system. The X20 system supports efficient prewiring of the entire control
cabinet using separate terminal blocks. The complete X20 system configuration is mounted in the control cabinet
and connected to the prewired cable trees.
The supply of the X20 modules and the supply of the sensors and actuators do not add any requirements for energy
distribution. The X20 system reduces manual wiring to a minimum.
2.9.1 Install the wires, plug it in, and it's ready to go
Simple, tool-free wiring for fast installation. The X20 system terminal blocks use a fully integrated and proven push-
in connector system. Each terminal can also handle double wire sleeves up to a diameter of 2x 0.75 mm². The
user saves time wiring the system multiple times and distributing the signals.
The wire connections can be removed with a screwdriver. Each terminal also has an access point for a measure-
ment probe. A great deal of thought was given to designing every aspect of the X20 system. Right down to the
wire connectors.
Information:
To avoid damaging the terminals, the X20AC0SD1 B&R screwdriver should be used.
Detached
The terminals can be prewired apart from the actual I/O
module. This provides many advantages for control cab-
inet construction. Separate manufacturing, just-in-time
logistics and the installation of preassembled systems
during start-up become reality.
Tool-free
Simple, tool-free wiring for fast installation. The X20 sys-
tem terminals use a fully integrated and proven push-
in connector system. Available with 6-pin and extremely
compact 12-pin terminals.
Coded in the system
Factory coding prevents dangerous mix-ups. Coding
guarantees that only parts which are permitted to be
combined can be combined. Intuitively and without ad-
ditional work.
Ergonomic
Component density does not have to negatively affect
ergonomics. With terminal spacing of more than 5 mm,
this was handled optimally on the X20 system. Experi-
ence gained in the field - used in the field.
Coded in the application
Incorrectly inserting terminals does not necessarily
damage the electronics, but always causes faulty func-
tioning of the system. Application coding prevents this
problem.
Unmistakable
Distinct forms intuitively define various functions, such
as clearly assigned latching and unlatching functions for
terminals. This prevents errors from the very beginning.
Labeling
Each terminal is clearly labeled, directly in the plastic.
Additional label tags are available as system acces-
sories including a printer with ECAD connection.
Easy servicing
A system's strengths can be seen in its details: In ad-
dition to the terminal connector and unlocking mecha-
nism, each terminal has an access point for a test probe.
You can easily measure the terminal potential without
disconnecting the wire.
